It seems as if MLB superagent Scott Boras has once again been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. That he more or less has been attempting to "steal" a major client from yet another fellow agent.
It was recently reported by an ESPN writer that someone representing Boras had made several (as many as ten) phone calls to a top prospect in order to get that player to switch over to Boras. If so, he needs to be more sternly reprimanded by MLB officials than merely what's tantamount to no more than a minor slap on the wrist.
Such a blatant and unethical disregard for the rules and a pure lack of respect for a fellow agent is absolutely ridiculous and should not be tolerated by MLB.
Is such conduct by a high profile and successful agent as Boras due to him needing the money ? Such a scenario could hardly be the case, he's made many millions already. It's more probable that he needs to feed a huge ego in an attempt to "hog" as many top clients as he can in order to proclaim himself, "king of the hill".
